Even though the Rafah has been designated a safe area, it has continued to come under attack. The number of attacks on Rafah city are similar to those in the north of Gaza, Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud reports from Rafah, southern Gaza.

Overnight, a home was targeted in northeast of Rafah city, killing an entire family.

The killings have not stopped, not even for a day. People that do not die from the bombs are likely to die from the terrible humanitarian situation they are enduring, he said.
